Well it finally happened. We went to see the first pre-season game against the Flyers (we got humbled) and was great! Cannot wait to go back.

Hi all, are there any suggestions for casual driving shoes/loafers to replace a 3-year old A&E with a ruined sole (not fixable as a not traditional loafer)? I came across Carmina's that is similar to the A&E but was hoping for a little cheaper ($200-25) for a driving shoe. I would prefer one with replaceable soles (since I walk a lot in them) so a company like Bobbie's is out (I'm assuming but not certain that Carmina's are replaceable). I could probably live with Oak Street Bootmaker's Bit Moc but curious of any other suggestions (their camp moc is also an option since I don't normally love horsebit loafers but concerned they look too much like boat shoes I already own in a lighter shade).

PS - I may cross post this elsewhere just an fyi if you come across this post again.

I think driving shoes, by definition, are shoes that you wouldn't be walking in and thus wouldn't be really wearing out the soles much.
I really like my Baudoin & Lange strides for a comfy rubber sole loafer that doesn't look like a boat shoe. I got mine on ebay for around your price range.

Another fantastic show!
